Every year the same question: Will my order still arrive in time for Christmas? Not quite easy to answer!
Of course, every shipment can be delayed, some packages get lost in the sorting center and show up only a week later. Others get lost entirely. Nothing in life is 100% certain. However, the parcel services specify the last possible dates for shipping every year, so that the package can be delivered before Christmas.
DHL states, that, parcles picked up on Saturday December 21th will be shipped up until and including December 24th. (Source)
GLS specifies Wednesday December 19th as the last possible pickup day (Source).
What does this mean for our customers? Stock items, which are ordered on Friday December 20th before 12 o’clock with us, are dispatched on the same day and should arrive in time for Christmas.
This is only valid for customers in Germany of course. Deliveries to other countries will take more time. You can find an overview here. This also assumes that you make an instant bank transfer. If you order Friday and make a regular bank payment, it will reach us on Monday, so the order will subsequently be shipped on Monday.
Heavy or bulky items (large bags and cases, targets, string jigs or bow presses) that are shipped with GLS have to be ordered a day earlier on December 19th before noon.
You can recognize stock items very clearly in the store by the real stock and the delivery time of 1-3 working days:

But be careful! The item with the slowest delivery time determines the shipment! So if you are in a hurry, only order items in stock, and do not combine them with items that we do not have in stock. Also, of course, the indication of the delivery time applies only to as much as we have in stock. If you order 10 items and we only have 5 in stock, the shipment will of course be delayed.
